Ardor by permanente1600

[raw]
made by permanente1600 for LD27 (JAM)
In an ancient time the world faced near destruction. One of the new Gods tasked his priest to complete a mystic ritual before the worlds eminent destruction. The priest was granted the ability to stop time using the God's enchanted flame. The rest was left to fate.


This game was completed in just over two days by a three person team.

-Jonathan (www.jonathanstagnaro.com) on art using photoshop and illustrator.

-James (www.jamesillustration.com) on code using Unity and Monodevelop.

-Dave (dave@presentcreative.com) on sound using Ableton Live, East West Quantum Leap Libraries.

The three of us work together at PresentCreative, a game studio based in San Francisco. We all love games and the art that goes into them, so we tried to bring that love into the amazing challenge that is Ludum Dare! Enjoy the game.

enjoyed playing this. Took me a second to figure out I needed to 'X' the tutorial, since the character moves and gets the flame click option even with it open. Ran out of time so didn't do all the murals, hope it ramps up the difficulty a bit in the end.

Outstanding gfx! , I have reached the third lights-panel but the first blue light is not responding to my clicks. Please fix it so I can finish the game! :)

^^juaxix. Thanks for the heads up, i know whats happening. When you try to click that blue light the click is actually being picked up by the character sprite. I'll do a quick reposition of the lights so that doesnt happen.

nice art and style, guys.

check your tilesheet animation code though, I got a bug just trying to press some direction buttons at a very fast pace.

Awesome art and sound ambiance. The gameplay felt a bit simplistic, but I liked the fact that you had to figure it out most for yourself. I loved the conclusion of the game :)

Impressive art! The game looks really polished, other than some minor problems at times clicking on the lights.

Brilliant game, good job! ;D

The glowing orbs look cool in the dark and while you're running past with a torch. The wall/pillars have a nice effect in general too.

The gameplay itself isn't very innovative, but the art style is amazing.

The art and sound are fantastic. The gameplay was more tedious than fun and the final puzzle was ramped up way too hard, considering the previous few.

I love the awesome art! It's fun to play and fits the theme very well. I noticed a glitch in the character drawing, when the direction is changed quickly.
